Yeah, they are similar........but they ain't the same. *Dusts of her dictionary* Erm.. 2.judgement - an opinion formed by judging something; 3.judgement - the cognitive process of reaching a decision or drawing conclusions 5.judgement - the capacity to assess situations or circumstances shrewdly and to draw sound conclusions 7.judgement - the act of judging or assessing a person or situation or event; And now for the interresting part; 1.judgement - the legal document stating the reasons for a judicial decision; "opinions are usually written by a single judge" legal opinion, opinion, In conclusion a Judgement in law a legal opinion (Since it does base on a principle you draw your assets from, like the LL ToS. It's still an opinion though.) and for everything else it's still an opinion as I clearly stated above. But this is rather silly and I don't want to go into nitpicking, so let's ignore this for now and go back to what I intended this thread to be. And Dogboat is pretty much right, including myself and a couple of others that have mentioned it; SL is an amazon world. You have to adapt to the sizes, but due of this and harassment, people gradually keep making more max height characters and in effect the world has to adapt with a better object scaling. So smaller avatars get more frowned upon apparently.

Judgements are opinions, not facts. So what you said made no sense either. Can you recap what you guys are fighting over because it seems to be unecessary. \/\/\/\/\/ My character is 6"5 ( Which is absurd as hell and I'm probably going back thanks to you guys ) and I still got harassed so much for looking like a kid \/\/\/\/\/\/\/

My understanding in regards to Adult Land is that child avatars are allowed on it as long as there are no "adult activities" in the specific location you are in. Thank you people for your help, I think I can take a breather and calm down without getting worried that I might run into trouble with LL. I'll just ignore a person now if they keep spurting that they report me to LL for staying in an adult sim with a kid looking character. Certainly very helpful.

I'm pretty sure Child characters are not allowed on adult sims, it's the ToS of LL and ageplay is pretty much like that. http://i.imgur.com/7BsZB.jpg Perhaps someone can tell me if I look like a kid avi in comparision with this, I'm not sure anymore. ( I have also been harassed by land owners thanks to this thread now, looks like there is no point in hiding my identity anymore )

... With the exception that child avatars are ALREADY banned in adult and some moderate zones. And I'm not sure if you understand the point actually, it's about avatars that aren't kids, neither they look very much like it but are still judged as a child avis. It's somehow about the meta of SL that makes slutty, almost nude avatars in SL mature, while if you are trying to maintain an amount of decency and a normal avatar that you are condemned as kid avi despite even with the height.

Thank you for your replies. I really wish I *could* be myself and just not care, but I assume that the next time someone would report me that I actually would get banned for it since the LL staff didn't really seem to be interrested in evidence or whatsoever. But I'll cut myself short for now, I don't want to bother anyone with reading through my problems; I really wish there would be a place for myself, but from what I have seen I didn't found it so far. I cannot join adult sims as I run into the possibility of being reported again for my fashion style and PG/M zones (Yes, despite the vast amount of bikini and raunchy looking characters that play kid avis there -- and let's face it, PG zones aren't very PG because of this, especially if you put purchaseable goods right on the startpoint. Speaking of making the game friendly for minors.) put my character way too much into highlight, since she is taller than everyone else, dresses completely different and is being *that* unique snowflake no one wants to talk to. I mean I play a completely normal woman, normal looks, normal height, no massive chest or bottom and the only nude skin anyone can see is above my collar line. Yet I do get condemned everywhere for my sense of fashion that I apparently play a kid avi. I just want my character to be seen as cheerful and happy which her clothing expresses, but it doesn't seem like there is such a place for myself in SL and I most likely have to rework the avatar. And I already have made my character down to 168 cm so I won't be consired an outcast in Giggles Beach in comparision to all the skimpy, tiny girls there and the older men...Right. I don't even play a child avatar, my avatar is an adult with sense for japanese pop fashion.

So here's something I have noticed in my short time that is fairly strong within the SL community; Getting told that I play a child avi and apparently even reported for it. Let's put aside the fact that I actually play a 1.93m high sized character (That is the max height you can set yourself as a female), which I got reported for. But why is it that I ultimatively get a warning for it? Does the staff not check your avi or actually want some sort of photo evidence that you actually played a character like this? Why is it that bright, cheery clothing is giving everyone on SL the impression that you play a 2 meter sized 12 year old or something when they play characters themselves at around 1.50m? Which is another problem I have encountered; Grimdark/Ghetto Clothing is apparently the de facto standard of SL to not be a child avi (Yes, this seems to be a proven method to still be pedophile bait if you play a 10 year old with lots of makeup and black, skimpy clothing without getting warnings). I have seen plenty of thin and mini avis that follow this rule and they are in SL for years, yet when someone like me who plays an avi that wears striped leggings, boots, a plaid skirt, hoodie and twintails is consired a child avi and gets a warning on the first day? Another strange thing is that the proportions of height are **bleep**ed too thanks to the people that are completely disillusional and play 2 meter characters. If I play a 1.70 cm character this is completely average for an adult woman, I don't see why people would get upset when I would join an adult sim with that height and mentioned clothing. http://pediatrics.about.com/library/growth_charts/ngirlstwo.htm Can someone enlighted me this perversion the SL community has with grimdark clothing and the hate for bright, white clothing that is considered to be a kid avi regardless of how tall you are? And why exactly is it that the staff doesn't require screenshots to even confirm it? Eventhough I shouldn't mention this, but this is far from realism and I would haven ever thought I would say something like that about something like SL. It's breaking my immersion. I mean, not even in real life Gyaru Gal would be a fashion style that would make you look like a 10 year old.
